Siemens to Highlight Modernization Solutions at AHR Expo 2026

February 3, 2026

Siemens is set to showcase its latest building automation and digital building technologies for smarter, more sustainable facilities at AHR Expo 2026, taking place February 2–4 in Las Vegas. Attendees are invited to visit Siemens booth C1731 to explore a range of innovative solutions and services demonstrating how modernization is the foundation for human-centric autonomous buildings, using Siemens’ Desigo building management platforms, Building X AI-enabled applications, advanced controllers, and a full portfolio of wired and wireless HVAC devices.

With a focus on helping customers modernize aging building automation systems, Siemens will highlight the benefits of upgrading building management systems, panels and network infrastructure in a stepwise approach with integrated, open platforms to improve system reliability, energy efficiency, and workforce productivity while enhancing occupant comfort. By transitioning from legacy, siloed systems to intelligent, connected solutions, building owners and operators gain real-time visibility into operations, enabling data-driven decisions and proactive optimization that reduce long-term operational costs.

Desigo Building Management Systems

At AHR Expo 2026, Siemens will feature its Desigo portfolio, including Desigo CC V9, Desigo Optic V5.2, and Siemens SLX built on the Niagara Framework by Tridium. These platforms demonstrate how modern building management systems unify HVAC, lighting, energy, fire safety, and security into a single, secure ecosystem using open protocols and standardized architectures.

Desigo CC V9 delivers an enhanced user experience through its Flex Client interface, expanded capabilities for vertical markets such as pharmaceuticals and data centers, and native integration with Building X for hybrid and multi-site management.

Desigo Optic V5.2 provides an open, scalable solution for small to medium projects and multi-building environments. Built on the FIN Framework with native Haystack 4 semantic tagging, Desigo Optic enables harmonized data, faster engineering, intuitive dashboards, and secure edge-to-cloud connectivity that simplifies remote access, servicing, and system optimization.

Siemens SLX Network Manager and SLX 9000 controllers deliver enterprise-grade building automation with enhanced hardware performance, long-term Niagara support, and advanced security features. Designed for flexible integration and IoT-enabled optimization, SLX supports scalable deployments that prepare buildings for future operational and digital demands.

Building Automation Controllers and Connected Devices

Siemens will also showcase its Desigo PXC 4, 5, and 7 family of primary controllers, engineered for both new construction and modernization projects. These controllers support sophisticated HVAC control through cybersecure BACnet/SC networking, open protocol compatibility, and built-in HTML5 web-based engineering interface that simplify deployment while delivering high-performance automation.

In addition, Siemens will highlight its room automation controllers, Edge devices, and a full portfolio of wired and wireless I/O devices designed for all HVAC sensing and control applications. For OEM, the magnetic expansion valve boosts energy efficiency and sustainability for the end customer. These solutions are built with cybersecurity, flexibility, sustainability, and efficiency in mind, supporting multiple protocols—including BACnet Secure Connect—to enable seamless integration with Siemens and third-party systems.

Digital Services and the Path to Autonomous Buildings

Through live demonstrations and expert discussions, Siemens will show how digitalization, artificial intelligence, and cloud connectivity are transforming building operations. Solutions such as Building X Lifecycle Twin enable customers to move from reactive to proactive building management, using software that creates, maintains and visualizes digital twins for buildings and infrastructure based on building information modeling (BIM) to support the transition toward human-centric autonomous buildings.
